Japanese fans select "Epiphany" by Jin as their favorite solo BTS song

Back in October, Japanese fans held voting for their favorite BTS. Lots of Jin's songs were voted in the Top 20, including "Epiphany," "Moon," "Awake," "Abyss," and "Tonight."


The list was topped by "Epiphany" followed by "Euphoria" in second and "Moon" in third place. Jin took over the hearts and minds of Japanese fans with his vocal and composing talent. 






"Epiphany" remains one of the most legendary songs BTS has ever released. It was inspired by Jin's own experience with finding a way to self-love and acceptance, crowning the entire "Love Yourself" series. It is frequently mentioned as one of the most impactful BTS songs ever by various media outlets. Once, it was also included in the special self-love-themed playlist by an American singer Lizzo.

The live performance of "Epiphany" is even more impressive than the studio version of the song. Jin is known as the "King of Live Vocals" in Japan, and he keeps proving this nickname to be accurate at every new stage. 

When BTS was performing in Saudi Arabia, Jin's "Epiphany" had a magical effect on the audience. Everyone felt like being in a trance while listening to Jin's crystal clear voice (the public included not only fans but also lots of locals who were accompanying them). "Epiphany" and "Jin" immediately went straight to #1 on Twitter trends in SA and on the iTunes chart. It became the first foreign solo act to do so. For two weeks straight, the media of Saudi Arabia was posting about Jin's phenomenal performance.

"Epiphany" had quite a minimalistic stage, and Jin didn't add any dance moves to his performance. However, his stylish futuristic piano, powerful charisma, the talent of acting, and strong, beautiful vocals created a marvelously impressive theatrical experience. The creative director of BTS's concerts, Kevin Kim, shared that Jin in "Epiphany" always felt like "meeting a God." Having such an impact on people with just your voice is the power of pure talent.

Knetz also agreed that "Epiphany" deserves its 1st place:

"Moon," composed and written by Jin, is also one of the most impressive songs of BTS. It is forever written in the history of music as the 5th best Boyband song named by Rolling Stone. They also crowned "Moon" as the song that sums up everything that made BTS massive. It has also entered the Top10 of best songs of 2020. "Moon" is still the longest-charting BTS's solo song on MelOn in its history. It got lots of love from the critics and public. Jin's musical talent truly shines in this song. Moreover, the song is written in key C, making it impossible to cover for most male singers. 

All of Jin's solo songs are always included in the list of best BTS's releases over the years. His every next track is even more impressive than the previous one. Fans also admit that his solo songs are the ultimate masterpieces that will never get old.
